    Re: Assumed positions, WAS: IN HONOR OF JEREMY...
    From: George Huxtable

    I could have added some more recent papers on calculating 2-body fixes.
    
    Stanley W Gery, "The direct fix of latitude and longitude from two observed
    altitudes", Navigation, 44 (1) 1997.
    
    George H Kaplan "Determining the position and motion of a vessel from
    celestial observations", Navigation, 42 (4) 1995.
    
    I've only listed, here, pages from the American publication "Navigation",
    and haven't investigated the British "Journal of Navigation", which I expect
    would have also carried articles on that topic.
    
    George.
